lol great minds and all that ;)

red??? hmmmm with all that sun bet its more pink than red :D

and its fat with a wide arse

tbh i didnt have to cut it to fit the fmic but just to look a little different/more aggresive and to get more air to the intercooler I did also modify my last zeds bumper as well with meshing and it looked well :)

Burgendy one around 12.30 going south leyland way then a red one again going south between lancaster and preston?? I was going north and in my golf so you wouldnt have seen me :) Mike

i think 15% poss upto 18% would be max to work it out tbh most rolling roads actually read at the wheels then they convert it to fly which i never understand?? lol

25% who gave you that figure?? more like 15% for manual RWD car, 4WD cars have a loss of about 25% but not a chance for our cars ;)

You may have plenty of money but it looks like in this case you DONT have enough to buy it mate!!! i do know a wide arch zed running decent power that might be for sale but its not my place to post up but i'm sure they will if it is deffo for sale!! Mike

You'll be all glad to know i have my golf back and now have nice cold air con working :) Just need some new tyres now ready for the ring ;)

yeh looking to take all my own stuff :)

Looking to go in august with the wife and little one (9 year old) Any places that people would recommend?? Ideally want to camp somewhere near paris the first night and do the euro disney thing then go further south :) Any suggestions welcome ;) Mike

Antilag if fine if your running a rally car but it destroys turbos after about 3000-5000 miles!!! but as they change the turbos every rally its not a problem but no good for road use, suppose now and again it wouldnt be too bad ;) My ECU has it but i wont be setting it up, my mapper mainly does rally cars and he was telling me about some of the cars and they have the antilag set so that even on idle the turbo is making 0.5 bar of boost :eek:

I think its safe to quote on behalf of mac to say i dont think you have enough money to pursuade him to sell ;) Mine will be for sale next year some time but not unitl i get it running full power :) I know of a couple of other decent power zeds which may be forsale ;) Mike

thats what the guy who owns it has told royal??? i thought it was strange as theres no way standard injectors would produce that power and i cant see and aditional injectors? must have 550's at least i would have thought??

OK OK OK Its only while my manly golf is being sorted ;) :p

Makes me laugh when people spend thousands on modding a car then get tight when it comes to the most important bit of your car ie the electronics which control eveything!!! Buying an "off the shelf" chip if not too bad if your running basic mods but anymore and the "off the shelf" chips are just basic maps and being as no 2 cars are the same you really need a decent engine management and someone who can map it properly on a dyno who has the experience!! Trust me it may cost more but your car will last longer and you WILL get more power out of your set up i promise you!!! Dont have to cost the earth you can get the emanage fully fitted and mapped for around £500 and go all the way upto the likes of me and MAC with fully standalone units which your looking more like £2k mapped?? Mike

nope :tongue:

As i said in my PM to royal be very very careful as its running standard injectors :wack: so i would hazard a guess that either bigger injectors have been removed or the power figures are a load of rubbish??? or (fingers crossed) he has got it wrong and they are bigger injectors :) Mike

I'd be careful, looks like pikeys next door :rofl: Nail everything down :smash:

hey its even got a flower holder next to the steering wheel ;)

you can get a surf board rack ;)

Picked my new car up today :) Thought i would have a change from the golf ;) Thought you guys would like it :tongue: Mike

ive actually sat in that one ;) go to that garage now and again as he does get some nice cars in but i do agree i think its overpriced and i think he got it as another garage near him went bust and he bought all the stock so i doubt he paid anywhere near that :) nice but of rally history though

Also getting an RPS carbon/carbon clutch as well :rolleyes: :p thats another £1500 :smash:

My car runs totally brilliant, no smoke nothing, making good power but obviously we knew something was wrong. Anyway i bought a leakdown tester to see exactly where its losing pressure and whats needed to rebuild it back to 100% Was a real eye opener did a compression test first and all were 160 psi with the engine being cold but number 4 was at 90 odd so i knew that something was wrong there anyway but then we did the leak test and 1,2,3 were all perfect no valve leaks, ring leaks, headgasket leaks etc, did number 4 and we expected a bad result and as we expected went straight down into the red and you listen to where the leak is coming from. Oil cap and its the ring, exhaust and its the exhaust valve, throttle body, inlet valve and if its leakin from the head gasket you will hear it further down the block. Anyway as we expected air was coming from the oil cap!! did 5 and even though it was still in the green it did drop and was leaking from the oil cap again so again the ring is letting pressure through and number 6 was perfect. So i thought i would write this as it goes to show you just because it feels ok, doesnt smoke etc it doesnt mean your not losing power from a leaky ring or valve!!! Would hazard a guess that theres plenty of zeds out there that are leaking without people knowing!! so well worth getting a tester and check it now and again to make sure your car is working to its best ;) Mike
